What are the benefits of a waterless manicure?
Using oil-based products instead of warm, soapy water is more effective for maintaining healthy skin and nails and can allow for a longer –lasting polish application. Soaking in water can cause polish to chip sooner because the nail plate is porous. It absorbs water while soaking and the nail plate expands. If you apply polish to an expanded nail, the polish will not adhere well and is likely to chip when the nail dries out and shrinks back.
